Group message isn't working

I can only see one person's texts so it seems like she's just talking to herself. I'm the one who made the group for 5 of my friends and me, but I only see one person's texts. We all have iPhones that are either the 4s, 5, or 5s. And my group messaging is on too so I don't know what's wrong. Is it because it's not updated? I'm using the iOS 7.1.1 and haven't updated it yet since I don't have enough space so is that the problem? Or no? If not, then how can I fix it?

I'm not sure about the function, but on my 4S if I go to Settings>Messages and scroll down, there is a heading SMS/MMS and there is a toggle for Group Messaging.
If you are not seeing this in yours, you might want to try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. Check to see if you have the setting after that. Note, this will not affect data.

  • I have an iphone6. And out of the blue my group messages aren't working. I can send but not receiving any back.

    I have an iphone6. And out of the blue my group messages aren't working. I can send but not receiving any back.  Any ideas???  I already reset my phone twice.

    You should check that your settings (both directions) match this:
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    SSL Required: Yes
    Port: 993
    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
    Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    SSL Required: Yes
    Port: 587
    SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    Password: Your iCloud password
    Note: If you receive errors using SSL, try using TLS instead.
    Your signature says you have 10.6.8 - is this correct? If you migrated from MobileMe using this your mail settings won't be correct and you will need to follow this procedure to re-enter them:
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard

  • My iPod 5 message isn't working

    I've tried logging out of my apple but it still isn't working. I've also reset my ipod and reset the wifi but I can't send or receive messages.. I've also turned off the messages.. It's just not working

    Hi,
    It seems like you have done every thing that should have solved your problem. The only thing I can think of is to wait for an ios update. Often there can be gliches in ios software such as your problem with iMesage.They  can then be resolved by a new version of software. So your best option would be to update asap and if the problem is not resolved make an appiontment at your local apple store and get help from the pros. Hope this helps you.

  • Group messaging doesn't work after switching to Galaxy S4

    1. Turned off imessage before switching
    2. Disconnected my phone number from iTunes, iMessage, FaceTime, Apple, iCloud
    3. Deactivated my phone from Apple, however I've gone back on to check 3 times and my phone keeps reappearing on there...not sure how this happens
    4. Turned back on my old iphone and whiped it completely to brand new
    I have two separate group messages: one with 2 iphone users, one with 3 iphone users. The group message with the 2 iphone users works fine. The group message with 3 iphone users works for ONE of the iphone users, but not for the other two.
    They can text me individually and it sends as sms after attempting to send as imessage, but when in the group message it automatically sends as imessage and doesnt allow for the switch to sms.
    I've called Apple Care 5 times already, and each time they've suggested something new, asking me to wait 24-hours and then try again. We've all deleted eachother messages and contacts as if we didnt exist any longer and then started a new thread which didnt work either.
    Help!

    Hi i,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    It's difficult to determine by touch if the PB is hot enough to turn the fans on. Do you know the fan/s used to work while performing a certain function? There are two fans, both in the rear, one centered and the other by the power connection. Neither one turns on, even with the power adapter connected?
    One fan "test" I've found to be relatively consistent between 800/867/1GHz TiBooks is to run Visualizer in iTunes for about 15 minutes with the power adapter connected. That has always created enough CPU activity to turn the fans on for every TiBook I've ever tested.
    If no fans, I would try resetting the PMU and NVRAM first. If that doesn't work, then I'll take a guess and say there may be some difference in the 800/1GHz firmware (assuming all the hardware connections are correct, as you've stated, and the fans themselves function).

  • My send button on messaging isn't working any help out there?

    My send button isn't working, any help?

        Hello monti221! Nothing is more frustrating than a phone that's not operating correctly. I want to help! Thank you gina7239 for your valuable input. My suggestion would be to complete a "restore" of your device. Using iTunes will ensure that all of your data is saved. If you need instructions please select the link and select iPhone support.. http://bit.ly/y5iuoj Let me know if this helps!

  • I have updated my iphone 5c to the latest update and my text message isn't working .? Not sure what to do?

    As suggested try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    Also, it might help if you provide a little more detail on what you mean by "not working"

  • Group Messages have stopped working

    Hi there. My Skype groups have stopped being able to send message to the group participants on Mac OSX 10.10.4. I have the latest Skype installed. I can send messages to individual users only. The users in my groups are also having the same issue.  Any thoughts how to solve this as I'm using Skype to run the communications for my projects and this is at a crutial stage and not acceptable to be having issues like this.  

    I am also experiencing the same problem, although it is just me in my group. I have quit and uninstalled Skype countless times. Edit: I have tried to start a group conversation myself but my messages don't go through and the participants are unaware I even created a conversation in the first place.

  • Group messages in iOS 8 updated not working on my iphone 5

    i updated to the new iOS 8 this morning on my iphone 5 and now the group messaging isn't working.
    no group message option in setting neither. help please.

    I have this problem too - and it is on a BRAND new iPhone 6 - I have definitively tracked the issue to the moment I upgraded to iOS 8.1.2 - and am beyond frustrated. No fix to tell you about, sorry…but you can read my post here if you are into the whole "misery loves company" thing: iOS 8.1.2 Cellular data problem (Definitive - maybe)

  • Group Messages Not Working between Android and iPhone Users on iOS7

    Hi there,
    I am a former iPhone user.  I recently converted both my line and my wife's line from the IPhone 5 to a Motorola X Android phone.  We kept our same phone numbers, but we completely switched from Verizon to AT&T.  I have noticed that text messaging works perfectly on an individual basis when I correspond with individuals who have the iPhone, but Group Messaging is not working correctly.  I am able to send messages to a group and they receive them just fine, but when they respond back to me, I do not receive their responses (as it appears they are going through as iMessages).  My wife is having the same issue on her phone.  After doing some detective work, I have found that hundreds of other users are having the same issues on their smartphones when they make the switch from an Apple product to an Android phone.  There are a variety of "bug fixes" listed on the web, but I have completed all of them and I am still having the same issue.  Here is what I have done so far...
    *Factory reset both of our phones and removed the SIM cards (since we are with a new phone carrier)
    *Changed both of our apple ID passwords
    *Removed both of our phone numbers from Apple's database all together
    *Unregistered both of our iPhone products with Apple
    *Had all of my friends/family switch SMS to "On" in their Settings tab
    So now what?  I read one post on an Apple forum that said that they are aware of the issue and we can expect a fix in a future iOS update...but when is that going to occur, if at all?  It is problems like these that led me to leave Apple all together, and here I am after having left the company, and I am still left high and dry searching for solutions to my problems.  Who can help, and how can I remedy the situation?
    Anything you can provide to help out would be great.
    Thanks.

    There are reports of iOS7 altering the settings on iMessage's connection to the iPhone. Verify that each of the iPhone and the Mac is receiving on the "channel" (phone number or email address) on which the other is initiating iMessages.

  • Group Message not working iPhone 6/ iOS 8

    I am not able to receive group messages after I updated to iOS 8.0.2  I just activated my iPhone 6 about 3 weeks ago (Before the Apple pay update). It was working fine until I updated the software with the Apple Pay. Initially I thought ALL the group messages are not working. After few trials I realized it was only the case when the group included both iPhone and non-iPhone users. Groups with ALL iPhone users is working fine.
    I have checked everything possible, but nothing works.
    - Turned off-on iMessages
    - Turned off-on Group messages
    - Reset Network Setting
    - Erased and Reset the Entire phone from Phone settings (Now operating on iOS8.1)- still not working
    - Called my carrier and they didn't seem to understand why I was having this problem
    I then spoke with Apple Support who ran few diagnostic tests and they didn't find anything. They suggested that I re-set the phone to brand new phone (with out iCloud back-up) via iTunes (not from phone settings) and see if that will fix this. I will try this later tonight and see if I have any luck.
    I tried telling customer service that I want to return my phone and get a new one- but they seemed to keep me away from that option.
    Has anyone else experienced this? If so, any suggestions?
